Invisalign
Invisalign treatment is braces without the wires. Invisalign uses a series of clear, plastic trays to straighten out your teeth or fix any concerns you may have. Straightening your teeth has many other benefits aside from an aesthetic smile. It can also help with the following:
Healthier gums
Improved oral hygiene
Bone loss
Jaw pain
Fewer costly dental procedures
Improved speech
Bad breath
Dry mouth/mouth breathing
Headaches
Tooth sensitivity
Why us?
A better smile can be achieved with Invisalign as early as age 6–7. At this period, we can identify and diagnose early tooth and jaw issues and treat them non-surgically. By starting treatment at a young age, we can help guide the growth of teeth and jaws, ensuring a proper bite while minimizing the need for more extensive dental procedures in the future.
Our experienced team at Windsor Dental Centre in Windsor, Ontario, utilizes technology to create personalized treatment plans tailored to each child’s unique dental needs. Invest in your child’s smile today and set the foundation for lifelong oral health — call today to book an appointment!
General Questions About Invisalign

Invisalign is a clear aligner system that gradually straightens teeth using a series of custom-made, removable aligners that are changed every one to two weeks to shift your teeth into the desired position.
How long does the Invisalign treatment process take?
The duration of Invisalign treatment typically ranges from 6 to 18 months, depending on the complexity of your orthodontic needs and how closely you follow the treatment plan.
What are the advantages of choosing Invisalign over traditional braces?
Invisalign offers a discreet appearance, allowing you to straighten your teeth without the visibility of metal braces, and they are removable, making it easier to maintain oral hygiene.
Are Invisalign aligners comfortable to wear?
Yes, Invisalign aligners are made from smooth plastic and are designed for a comfortable fit, causing less irritation to the gums and cheeks compared to traditional braces.
Invisalign Care and Maintenance FAQs
Can I eat and drink with my aligners in?
It is recommended to remove your clear aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water to prevent staining and ensure that your teeth are properly cleaned after meals.
How do I care for my Invisalign aligners?
To care for your aligners, rinse them with lukewarm water daily, use a soft toothbrush to clean them gently, and avoid using hot water or harsh chemicals that can warp or damage the aligners.
What happens if I lose or break an aligner?
If you lose or break your clear aligners, contact our dental clinic for guidance and to get replacements as soon as possible to continue your Invisalign treatment.
How often will I need to visit the dentist during my Invisalign treatment?
Typically, you’ll have follow-up visits every 6 to 8 weeks to monitor your progress and receive your next sets of aligners, ensuring that the treatment is on track.
